When changing spa water is it ok to use water from the hot water heater, just wondering if it would be a little easier.john
pjjp21, I have considered filling and draining the water with every use to avoid dealing with chemicals and such. ...What do folks think of this idea?Electro
Something to consider when filling a spa from any domestic hot water tank is psuedomonis. I have had customers fill thier spas with thier hot water heaters and introduce the tiny micro organism that was living inside there. In talking to Different Doctors they have told me this is why you are not supposed to drink hot water from the tap. The psuedomonis or "spa bug" as it is often called, rapidly breeds in warm, moist, dark places (covered hot tubs, water heaters) and is very hard to get rid of. It is best to fill with cool water and heat slowly and treat with an epa registered sanitizer to ensure safety.
Never heard that before... Interesting thought... Steve
There should be nothing wrong per se, in filling your spa with water from your water heater tank, after all, you take baths and showers with that water. But I can't see an advantage to dumping several hundred gallons of water every time you exit your spa.Brewman
